The choice of GSOM is not random for me. I would like to wish the guys to be very responsible about their time on the program, to take the maximum from all the offered opportunities, and there will be quite a few of them. It all depends on you! The learning process was very interesting, although at times difficult, the program helped to understand many things, understand their knowledge gaps and fill them.
The CORPORATE FINANCE program is about:
Studying at the program will allow you to expand your professional horizons by 360 degrees and give an understanding of how the financial function works in different areas. In addition, you will gain in-depth knowledge in the field of consulting, banking, investment and audit.
The content of the program is designed so that you can get acquainted with completely different areas of finance and choose in which area you want to develop while building a career. These are two consecutive courses in corporate finance, where students acquire theoretical and in-depth practical training in the field of financial management.
The training program is based on the principle of an inverted classroom: students prepare for classes where they already analyze specific tasks and examples, and do not get bored with dry theory. A number of disciplines have introductory online courses that are publicly available. You can study them yourself to assess your readiness to study at the MCF program:
